Chapter 377: To See Ling Is Like Seeing a Person
pill onto the ground. The redness on her face was just an illusion created by her internal energy. Of course, she wouldn't tell Mu Huan about this, and she only let Mu Huan believe that she was really...It was already the third watch of the night, several hours had passed. Outside, only Qianliye's people came in again and again to report, saying that one palace gate had been breached, and another was about to be breached. It seemed that even Heaven itself was helping Qianliye.
"Grand Master, the sound of fighting outside has lessened. It seems this palace has won. Nine Palace Gates have been broken, you have lost! Therefore, your time has come to an end!" Qian Li Ye was full of confidence.
“No! Your Highness, it was you who lost!” the Grand Tutor replied with remarkable calmness and absolute certainty.
"Is that so Everyone says the Imperial Advisor has the ability to see into the future, even knowing past and future events. I don't believe there's such a thing as divine." Qian Liye didn't believe the Imperial Advisor's words at all.
It was past midnight, and dawn was about to break. That would be the hour when Your Highness's soul returned! The Grand Master even boldly predicted the exact time of his death.
“Grandmaster, you wait here, this palace won’t lose, the ones who will die are you lot! Zhao Quan, you guard here, if you let them escape, this palace holds you solely responsible!” Qian Li Ye ordered his subordinate Zhao Quan to guard here while he, along with dozens of guards, strode out. He had to see for himself; he didn't believe that after so long of planning, he would still lose in the end.
At the same time, Xiao Yu Ge quietly came to Chong Hua Dian outside, relying on memory, she found the secret door that Xiao Qian Si Ming had secretly taken her out just now, and successfully hid behind the screen. She quietly observed the situation inside the hall, but what she saw in front of her made her dumbfounded: Xiao Yu Fu and He Huan were actually dancing
Thinking about how proud Xiao Yufu is, how could she dance obediently for those people It's really strange!
However, judging by their appearance, the two of them have been dancing for a long time. Xiao Yufu seems to be exhausted and almost fainted several times, and Mu Huan's situation is similar. Strangely enough, Mu Huan has martial arts skills, so she shouldn't be this weak. Could it be that...
Xiao Yuge looked around, the entire hall was surrounded by guards, probably hundreds of them. If she rashly rushed out, not only would she be unable to save those people, but she might also anger them. Facing hundreds alone, she had no chance of winning.
It seems like all the young masters and ladies from prominent families in the palace have been given a sedative. For now, if we want to win against them, we'll need the help of those young masters, after all, there are quite a few of them who know martial arts.
What can I do
Just as Xiao Yu Ge was at a loss, a palace maid carrying tea water walked out from behind. Perhaps because she suddenly saw her, the maid's mouth widened in surprise, as if she wanted to call out but couldn't.
"Shh!" Xiao Yu Ge flashed forward to her side and instinctively covered her mouth, lowering his voice, "If you don't make a sound, I'll let you go."
The palace maid nodded.
Xiao Yu hesitated, but still let go of her. After all, if she screamed now, she probably wouldn't be able to escape.
"Miss Xiao!" Unexpectedly, the maid called out Xiao Yuge's name as soon as she opened her mouth.
"Do you know me" Xiao Yuge looked at her unfamiliar face, she really couldn't figure out when she had met her.
The maid saw her confusion and hurriedly whispered, "Qianji Jinxiu opens Fuhong. This servant, Taoxin, greets Miss Xiao!"
Xiao Yu's song suddenly exclaimed in surprise and delight: "So you are..." This was the secret code of Qianji Pavilion!
“Miss Xiao, this place is dangerous, I will escort you out first!” The maid named Taoxin put down the tea in her hand and planned to protect Xiao Yuge to leave here. Before leaving, Ye Wuhuan had ordered that if Xiao Yuge was in danger, all members of Qianji Pavilion must do their best to help.
"No, I can't leave now!" Xiao Yu Ge looked at her, suddenly having an idea.
"Miss Xiao, the Master had ordered before leaving that if anything were to happen in the palace, we should protect your safety with all our might. So, you must leave this place with me!" Taoxin insisted on sending Xiao Yuge out of the palace safely.
"Peach Blossom, Night Bro said, seeing you is like seeing him. Since he's not here, you have to listen to me!" Xiao Yuge eyed the lack of time and had no choice but to take out the Qianji Token that Ye Wuhuan had given her before.
Upon seeing the token, Taohxin immediately knelt down respectfully. The rules of Qianji Pavilion were extremely strict; anyone who disobeyed would surely die!
Xiao Yu Ge came closer to her, briefly outlining his plan. Tao Xin listened and nodded: "I know what to do!"
"Here!" Xiao Yuge handed her a packet of powder.
The Peach Heart also knew that she had been out for too long. If she didn't return to the main hall soon, she was afraid they would become suspicious. So, she quickly poured the medicinal powder into the tea pot and gently swirled it until it dissolved completely.
"Miss Xiao, that Lu Kai is crazy! You must be careful of him!" Although Tao Xin knew that Xiao Yuge's methods of using medicine were powerful, she still couldn't rest assured. After all, everyone in Qianji Pavilion knew now that the pavilion master cared most about this Miss Xiao.
"Well, go ahead."
“Go get me some tea. You’re so slow, are you tired of living” As soon as she appeared, Lu Kai, who was slightly drunk, started cursing, his long sword pointing at her.
Xiao Yuge, hiding behind the screen, saw this and her hand clenched tightly. Her clavicle knife was already in her hand, ready to strike. As long as Lu Kai dared to hurt Taoxin, her clavicle knife would mercilessly sever his head!
"Master, the dewdrop tea you requested is in the Izumi Department's storehouse. It's too chaotic and dark outside right now, I searched for quite a while to brew this tea..." Fortunately, Taoxin remained calm in the face of danger.
“Really dew tea” Lu Kai, upon hearing that she had brought the imperial couple’s exclusive dew tea, felt his anger subside slightly as the aroma wafted out. Seeing Peach Heart still standing there in a daze, he glared at her: “What are you doing just standing there Hurry up and pour some for this general!”
"Yes!" Momo hurriedly rushed forward to pour him tea.
Although Lu Kai was reckless, he wasn't a nobody to have reached the position of vice-leader. He glanced at Tao Xin and then at the cup of tea before him, pointing at it and saying, "You, drink first!"
Tao Xin was stunned: Could he have seen through something
Her sudden pause immediately aroused Lu Kai's suspicion. His eyes turned cold, and he barked, "Drink!"
"Yes!" Momo drank the tea in one gulp without a moment's hesitation.
Li Kai stared intently at Taoxin, noticing that she didn't show any discomfort. He then relaxed his guard and motioned for her to pour him another cup: "Alright, fill up this cup for General Ben!"
"Yes!"
Xiao Yu Ge, who was hiding behind the screen, lightly patted her chest and let out a relieved sigh. Thankfully, she had anticipated this step earlier and had given Taoxin an antidote beforehand. Otherwise, Taoxin would have been in grave danger!e old woman shook her head, a look of bewilderment on her face: "No, my son said that after entering the Wen family, he had to sign a confidentiality agreement. Once leaked, he would be subject to the...
